Royal Pizza Destroyed By Fire Early Sunday Morning
July 6, 2008
Royal Pizza and Subs in Century was destroyed by fire early Sunday morning.
The fire was reported just before 3:30 Sunday morning. The first firemen on the scene moments later reported heavy smoke when they arrived. It took firefighters just over an hour to bring the fire under control.
The state fire marshal was called at 5:30 a.m. to the scene at 9441 North Century Boulevard, just south of the Alabama state line. Fire units were on the scene until 6:41 a.m.
The entire building suffered heavy smoke and water damage. The roof over the restaurant’s kitchen partially collapsed from the fire. Firemen used Century’s ladder truck to battle the blaze from over the rear of the building (pictured left).
The restaurant had been closed Friday and Saturday for the holiday weekend, according to a sign in front of the store.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation. There were no injuries reported.
The Century Volunteer Fire Department, the Flomaton Fire Department, the McDavid Volunteer Fire Department, the Molino Volunteer Fire Department, Escambia County EMS, the Flomaton Police Department and the Escambia County Sheriff’s Department all responded to the scene.
